IPSWICH CORPORATION DINNER. (From the Ipswich Journal.) The Bailiffs being absent, in consequence of the busi: nest of the Hall not being concluded, Edward Bacon Esq. was.calledio the Chair. After dinner the first toast was, His Majesty George the Fourth, long may he reign over a loyal, happy, and united people. The Duke of York and the Army. The Duke of Clarence and the Navy. The rest of the Royal Family. Lord Liverpool and the rest of the present Administra tion, and thanks to them for the benefit they have rendered their country. The Lord Lieutenant. of the County. The CHAIRMAN then said, that of all the candidates who had offered themselves in the Blue Interest, none were ever more worthy to represent this Loyal Borough than Messrs. Mackinnon and Dundas. This town and county, he said, were remarkable for their loyalty, and were never better represented than when they sent Tory Members to Parliament ; but of late the town has been misrepresented, and the opposite party seem to have selected men opposed to loyalty, and favourable to the Catholic Claims. He should propose the health of Mr. Mackinnon, and Mr. Dundas, and he hoped " it would not be long before they :would be firmly seated as Representatives in Parliament for this Borough." Mr. MACKINNON rose, and addressed them nearly in the following words :—" Suffering under indisposition, and being nearly overcome by your kindness, and the reception I have experienced this evening, I am the less able to ' return adequate thanks to the worthy Chairman for the distinguished compliment he has paid me. lam likewise highly flattered and gratified by the cordial manner. in which you have received the toast, and by the sentiments you have expressed on the present occasion. I regret much it should have fallen to my lot to acknowledge this honour ; also on behalf of my excellent colleague, who is at present in Scotland, but who is ever aliVe to your wel fare and happiness—the more you know of him, the more you will respect him for his talents and the good qualitiei othis heart. ' ' " I beg to assure you, Gentlemen, that I meet you as I left you in June last, with feelings of the most cordial regard, and most earnest solicitude for the welfare and hap piness of all my friends, in this ancient and loyal town. We were then, a's we are now, embarked in the same cause. You, and your friends here, and the loyal and in dependent freemen in the Blue interest, resident in Lon don and the country, struggled nobly for your independ ence, and we nobly succeeded ; but the late Bailiffs thought proper to return their own friends as your representatives. It will be in the recollection of several of the gentlemen present, that the senior Bailiff commenced his public duties on the firit . day of that arduous contest, by making the election of the Yellow candidates his own cause; yet, he well knew, that one of the first motives to civil society, and which is established as one of its fundamental rules, is, that no man should be a judge in his own cause. Their motives could only be known to themielves; but it will, n a few weeks; be the province of the high tribunal, be fore which they certainly will appear, to assign the inten ion which belongs to the quality o f ? their actions. We, _ in truth, experienced no defeat ; but the late Bailiffs w find, that, in disregarding the principles of the Constitu , 'tion, they have gained no victory. I rest my conviction on the evidence of strong facts, and the conclusions their conduct affords. It is my fixed determination, and that of my worthy colleague, to submit to no influence unrecog nized by the Legislature, and to seek, in the spirit of jus tice, of freedom, and independence, that, of which they thought proper to deprive us, by rejecting several of our legal votes. " I venture to allude to the late arrangement between the majority of the members of the Common Council and the leading gentlemen of the Yellow interest, which I con sider both prudent and wise, had it received the previous sanction of the electors ; but we are this day met together to 'celebrate the election of Blue Bailiffs ; for the purpose of congratulation; and of cementing friendship, and not for that of ostentatious triumph. I sincerely congratulate you on the election of two such worthy and independent gen tlemen, who, I a m persuaded, will, in the exercise of thei r public functions, disca rd the harsh feeVings of party politics cultivate the good will of. all parties, and exert their best efforts to promote the prosperity and happiness of this truly loyal town. " I endeavoured to explain my political sentiments in my *thirds to you on the Gth and 12th of June last. With a Strong prepossession in favour of our Administration, which deserves so well of the country, 1 told you it was my reso lution to exercise an unbiassed and unfettered judgment as your Representative in Parliament; I also truly assured y th o e u that i I yielded i ustnous to no man in loyalty and attachment to George the Fourth , Famil on the Throne. A monarch like 'distinguished ofhis-h i s .. Ptolne, must be venerated to the friend and father to you that I' had been by subjects.

Cutasinuns.—There appears to be a spot of blood on the breast of your shirt; how do you account for that "It is not blotitii Sir is is the stain of port-wine, that splashed out upon me while i was drawing the cork of a bottle of wine at the Rising gaff. The Magistrate, although persuaded that the mark was caused by blood, directed Grasankli to take the shirt into the liikinary next door,and have the opinion of the medi cal men as to whether it was produced by blood or by wine, as had been asserted . ' On the officer's return, he told the Magistrate that it was the opinion of the surgeon, that it was a stain of blood, cud that it presented an appearance of having been very much rubbed, in order to obliterate the mark. At this stage of the investigation, a messenger arrived froni Fetcham, with a letter front the Rev Mr. .Bo tum!, who, together with the other gentlemen resident in the, immediate neighbourhood of the murders, have been inde fatigable in their exertions to obtain some clue to the dis covery of the perpetrators. The letter was addressed to P. J. Chambers, Egg., or the Magistrate then presiding at the office, and was as follows: " Fetchers, Oct. 16. have evidence of the best description, that a grand daughter of the old man murdered at Fetchani was at teetherhead, in the fair-booth, on Wednesday and Thursday last, and that she w,.s then in company with two young fellows. Indeed, I have also reason to believe, that she was seen travelling with these eon,- , panions on the road from Lratherhead to Esher, within three milts of the spat where the deed was done, at half-past ten &clot& on Friday raorning,...the murder then having bran pretty publirly known for three hones. William Smith saw Mary Agnes (the grand-daughter) at Leatherhead fair, on Thursday morning, about eight o'clock, I met her in a passage, and spoke to her. She was in company with a man in a round frock. The man was tall and thin, and of a fresh colour. Mary Agnes is a thin young woman, about 25 years of age, a thick waist, palish face, and fair, with lightish hair. She is quits a tall woman. She had on high-laced shoes, with nails, a light gown, something of a pia, a flower running all down, and a black beaver bonnet.' " ' Isaac Sheath saw three men, one oldish, with his face wrap ped up as if from rheumatism, and two young hearty_fellows, with Mary Agnes, at half-past ten o'clock on Friday morning. Tbis was at Oakshot, two miles from Leatherhead ; they were tra velling towards Esher. My attention was drawn to them because they were driving their donkies very fast. One of the men asked ins what o'clock it was. I have known Mary Agnes all my life ; she is a good-looking girl, used to be jolly ; she is about twenty four years old.' " ' Michael Derby saw Mary Agnes at the fair on Wednesday. She was in company with two men ; one had on a %%Wit jacket, the other had on a brown frock. I was coming from the fair at four o'clock on Friday morning, Arid was going ton ards Fetcham. Betw_een Leetherhead cage and . Leatherbea 4 .bridge I met a mar a and woman ; they were whispering. I was frightened ; I could not distinguish their drew.' " This is all I can collect. It is my opinion that.no stranger committed the murder. Every thing favours the presumption that the perpetrators, either directly by themselves, or indirectly by others, were cognisant of the lonely and helpless state of the in mates of the house, and expected to find money, because the old creature had freehold property. I shall be at amnions to-morrow, and will bring Isaac Sheath. If you think it adviaeable to let in Hell or Pople, meet me. Sir, lam clearly convinced of the sot cessity of finding Mary Agnes. Pray excuse haste.—l. am, Sir, your obedient servant, " J. 0. BOLLAND." On the perusal of this important information, Mr. Cham bers immediately directed the chief officer, Hall, to lose no time in setting out to apprehend the suspected persons.— Post-chaises were ordered to be in readiness, and by half past one o'clock yesterday Mr. Hall, Pople, and Gras,- mith, the officers, were on the road, and had taken diffe rent routes, in order to come up with them 0 expeditiously Itir possible. The young man named Corney underwent no further ex amination, the Magistrates having permitted him to go back to his master, Captain Everard, and to cane up on a future occasion, should he be wanted. Corney strongly protested his intiocenCe bt taVing any knowledge of the murders, and during the period of his esamination frequently declared that the spots or marks on hiA shirt were not caused by blood, but in the 'muffler he had already stated. The following is a copy of the Will of John Akehurst, which will be read with toms degree of interest et the present moment : " I, John Akeherst, in the par;sh of Feteloan, in the county. of Surrey, labourer, appoint first , executor to tbie my will, to see me buried decently in the pariah. I next direct that my cottage, with the two orchards and land, with the fruit and produce thereto belonging, with my furniture, may be given to my housekeeper, Elisabeth Haynes, widow, for her stole use and benefit, for the term of one whole year, from the time of my de cease, and at the expiration of the said year, that she shall take sufficient furniture for her own use front my said cottage, and quietly resign and give up my said cottage, and land . thereunto belonging, to my daughter Jane Ayres, wife of James Ames, of Stoke, in the said county, for her separate use and benefit, during her natural life, independently of her present husband, or any husband with whom she may contract marriage. And after the decease of the said Jane Ayres, my said cottage and land to be sold by auction, ani after the just debts and expenses of the same are defrayed, the money arising from the wale. of the same to be equally divided between all iny grand-children, sons and daugh ters of the same James awl Jane Ayres; and I hereby revoke, an nul, and disavow all other wills, and declare this only to be my last will and testament.

" I explained to you that I considered a previous pledge or promise on the part of candidates for seats in Parliament as unconstitutional, and contrary both to the spirit and freedom of the House of CoMmons. You well know, Gentlemen, to what purpose it would be to examine wit nestles, to hear evidence, and to deliberate, when we had already resolved, and bound ourselves to vote, perhaps con trary to our duty to you and to our country. Be it stated to your honour, and as affording the best proof of your in di pendence, that you required no pledge or promise; that on the contrary, you left us at full liberty to support Ministers when we might believe th e m in the right, and to vote against them when we might believe them in error in other words, you left us at liberty to exercise an un biassed and independent judgment, and scorned to follow the example of some boroughs by requiring us to adopt party principles, and to surrender, at your discretion, the faculties of our minds. " Gentlemen, before I sit down, claim your attention, with confidence, to a toast which I hare now the honour and proud satisfactioe of proposing. This tribute is due from me and my worthy colleague. " To this enlightened assembly, it would be presump- ' tious in me to point out the powerful influence which amiable and lovely women possess over men, .and the strongest passions of the human heart. When I mention those ladies, with whose congratulations we were. every where greeted, on our first reception in this loyal town, and, subsequently, on our canvass, you cannot fail to Join me in associating with them, the virtue and the graces for which they are distinguished. Never can I forget the de monstrations of popular feelings to which they gave strength and confidence on that day. They, indeed, appeared throughout the whole of that arduous contest, as if our cause were their own, and as if we were the humble in struments of their choice? With every sentiment of re spect, and the liveliest sense of the publie spirit which they so cordially cheered and supported upon that occasion, I propose the health of the Ladies of Ipswich."—Drank with three times three. The health of Dr. Tucker was next given, and received with enthutiinsm ; after which, he rose, and in returning thanks rot' the honour conferred, observed, that it was a reward of labours similar to those in which they had all been engaged. In reference to the representation of the borough, he stated - his firm conviction, that Messrs. Mac kinnon and Du n d as w ould be successful, to which end his services would always be at their command.. As to the speeches of one of their Representatives, he could not ap plaud the excellence of his taste in the selection of the epi thets applied behind their backs, to the candidates and him self, and quoted tile ,old saying, " when the wine is in, the wit is out." He did not consider himself a hundred years behind the rest of his fellow creatures in intelligence and intellect, and was, therefore, most firmly of opinion, that the gallant Colonel had mistaken the shadow for the sub stantial essence of political economy. It was gratifying for him to state, that they would be enabled to go to battle in the House of Commons much earlier than had been expected; and, he could not but think, that the re taining by the present Representatives of their seats, when they must be well aware that they had not a leg to stand on, when it came to the point, did not argue that propriety either of judgment or decency ‘ which the, a,uthor of so brilliant a- treatise on Political Econorii;v . coda net be ig norant was so becoming in such a situation. He conga whited them on the tritmephant success of their party, on the Pith of September—reminded them that a bundle of reeds, united, was too strong to be broken, bitt se parated, ttilkht easily be destroyed, inferring a hope, that the' 'Measure would not create dissension in the party ; but that firmness and unity must of necessity ensure success to all their undertakings. There was no question as the law on the .subject but that—was not the only point on which he rested his conviction of the final success of our candidates. In every point, whe ther of Custom-house votes, the pauper votes, of decep tive votes, or of bribery, every point taken separately would give us a majority of votes in favour of our excel lent and worthy candidates. They had heard from the other party that these gentlemen flagged in their exertions to rescue the borough from the disgrace of sending to Par liament two men whose principles were as opposed to their own, as light to darkness; and he suggested the propriety of not, for one moment, believing any report they might choose to cl.irculate. , t , He ouseryeo, io conclusion, that the natures and prin ciples of fie two 'parties were so perfectly opposite, that it was cleavhey,uever could coalesce and agree ; 'but, he was confident, that whenever the Blue party were trium phant, that they would conduct themielves as gentlemen, and that their success would not be proclaimed with ca lumny and abuse, but with that mildness which would be come them, and for which they had ever been so conspi cuous and distinguished. After the toasts had been given, Major BROWN request ed permission of the Chairman toetate, that he had that day had an interview with Mr. Jackaman, he could assure the company that his heart and hand was with them. Mr. MACKINNON then rose to express a few sentiments relative to the contest of June last, and observed, " I con sidered it a fair and honourable competition for an honour able station. Our opponents will allow,. that neither I, gentlemen nor my worthy colleague, countenanced any act incon sistentfren h l t ‘ e v with political h pol n it s and icaliritegritY' ; personal friends of Mr. or the usage of altlimand, we experienced civility, not unmixed with fair and manly feelings. With regard to the other respectable candidate, who, according to his own opinion of himself, ,is highly talented and enlightened, I am surprised that the personali ties ascribedev the journals of thi s t own , s h ou ld ur absence too, and a ft er th e ex aapedtohis hi l m ip , i e, nin o ex planations that took place on the 15th and 17th of June. I will not condescend to follow his examp l e i n this in stance. You have been told by the same authority, that my honourable colter gtie is too young and i nex p er i ence d to represent you in Parliament ; if he be . young in years, you have seen enough of him to be corivoiced that he is old in information and talent, that he has a sound mind and a good.heart. With respect to myself, incompetent as I am, I should consider it no disadvantage as your re presentative, to have received the education of a physician, or to have been brought up to a humane and liberal pro fession, a profession which neither contracts the under standing nor corrupts the heart; several who belonged to the same profession have proved themselves both useful and honourable Members of the House of Commons. It is trne, I have passed many years of my life, and once held a high and responsible professional office in the - service a th e E ast India Company, I am si nce r e l y at t ac h ed by gratitude and the ties of long standing friendship to many of their servants, but does it follow that I am bound to uphold any errors or defects which may exist in the ad ministration of t h e i r a ffairs-- , that I am a suppo r ter of the high price of tea—and that I am to pr e f er t h e i nterest s of tiregaCompany todeateliveveil When the quest i on o f t h e Cam terests of the N at i on. I meet the pany s exclusive trade to China comes before Parliament, Colonel Torrens bay rest assured that he will not find me asleep, should I then 'have , the honour of a seat in the House of Cemmons, Ido not, however, pledge myself ate to the nature tif the tote which. I may deem it my duty to give upon that important subject: " It is difficult to conceive what thi force of genius may accomplish; but I cannot help thinking, that the respect able-station of Lieutenant and Captain of Marines could not afford the best opportunity for study, particularly the study of political economy." This speech was Meehied throughout with the most en thusiastical applause. On the health of Mr. Rodwell being drank, that gentle+ , man rose, and, in returning thanks for the very flattering and unexpected honour conferred upon him, took the op portunity of expressing his surprise at .the desire now for the first time manifested by the Yellow party, to put an end to the system for demoralizing, as it is called, the ' free burgesses of Ipswish. With whom, he asked, was it, that this system originated ? Who found it out to be so expensive and tiresome a system ? The same party who . first adopted it, now found out the necessity of putting an end to the disgrace they had inflicted on the borough. He congratulated the free burgesses on the very flattering and business-like communication made by Major Brown ' and he could but look foi ward to seeing his friends, Mr. Mac kinnon and Mr. Dundas, firmly seated as their representa tives. In that capacity he was sure they would redeem their pledges, and do justice to the choice of the freemen— they would, he was sure, most sedulously attend to their Parliamentary duties, and admit no opportunity within their reach of advancing the local interests of the town, and the personal advantage of their constituents. He would also congratulate the free burgesses - on their choice of bailiffs; of one of them be would speak without reserve, and he was sure that all their expectations would be re alized; and, although he was less acquainted with the other, he had every reason for believing that where he wanted assistance, he would have the diffidence and good sense to ask the advice which he would receive at the haat; of his, colleague. And although the town might be de prived of the services of some of the assistant justices, he still hoped, that in the pure administration of justice, the bailiffs would need no assistance, and that they would fear lessly and anxiously endeavour to do their duty. He con cluded by giiing the health of Mr. Haldimand and Colonel Torrens, in their anticipated retirement from public life. Drank with great applause. THE MURDERS NEAR LEATHERHEAD On Saturday night, at the conclusion of the inquest that took place at the Bell public house, Fetcharn, on the bodieti of the unfortUnate individuals who were murdered on Thursday night last; Mr. Hall, the chief constable, and Pople, the officer, set. out for town. On their road home, in passing through the village of Merton, they were informed by the landlord of the Bells public-house, that a man dressed in a fustian jacket and trousers had called there on Friday morning about ten o'clock. The stranger took his seat in the tap-room, and called for a pint of porter. There were 'several labouring men there a the time, all of whom were conversing on the subject of the murder that had been committed the previous night at Ketcham. The pint of porter having been served to the stranger, on put ting it to his lips and drinking out of it, the landlord, as well as two or three others in the room,observed that there were spots of blood on the wristband of his shirt. The circumstance excited some surprise at the time, and on more close observation, there were also spots of blood seen on the front part.* his shirt. The man appeared to be in a hurry, and having finished his bear, he left the house, and proceeded on the road towards London. Mr. Hall, on heating these particulars, expressed considerable) sur prise that he was sot detained, In consequence of the very suspicious circumstances under which ho entered the house; but the landlord said, that only having just heard of a re port of a murder having been committed, and not certain as to the truth of it, he took no fnrther notice, but allowed the man to depart. When Mr. Hall arrived in town, he communicated the above facts to Grassmith, an, active officer, who had imme diate instructions to proceed in search of this person. Grassmith was successful in his inquiries, and apprehend ed a young man in the parish of Bermemdsey, precisely answering the description of the suspected person, who was brought up to Union-hall polie4-office yesterday morning, and underwent an examination before R. J. Chambers, Esq. Grassmith stated that the prisoner's name is John Cor ney, and that on Sunday night, in the course of his in quiries, he ascertained that the person whom he wanted was seen in a low public-house in Kent-street, late on Friday night, and that he had every appearance of having just come out of the country. The dicer followed up the search, and at length, took the prisoner into custody at a public-house in Bermondsey, in the tap-room of which, it appeared, he had been very communicative to the company on the subject of the murders. Grassmith immediately commenced an examination of his clothes, and on looking at his shirt he observed a large spot of what he was,con vinced was blood on the bosom of it. He questioned Cor ney as to the cause, when the latter replied, that it was caused by some port-wine splashing upon it, while in the act of drawing, the cork out of the bottle. The shirt was here produced before the Magistrate, and the spot of blood alluded to was perceptible. Mr. CHAMBERS then proceeded to put the following questions to Corney What are you?—l am a labourer ' Sir, and have worked some time in the employment. of Captain Everarti, of Lock's-fields.
